this is unfortunately the picture i get using that method http://www.sende.co.uk/screenshot.jpg with a five second delay, i have tried allsorts in the past, shorter delays, longer, no delays, whole screens, et blah. using gimp 2.2.6 on debian sarge. but someone else has sent me a mail with a differnt method, i shall try that one then, just that it looks a bit complicated. sammi _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
